lirik lagu idina menzel - a map of new york
[stephen:]
think of each plaza, pier, and public park
how many sit there empty, lonely, dark
think of it, for tomorrow’s sake
think of how you and i can make our mark
you and i,
we can draw a brand-new grid
everything that you dreamed of as a kid
give it a year, and go with me
soon enough, you’ll say “look what we two did”
you’ve always had the right dream
we’ve always made a tight team
now at last you’re back,
exactly where you ought to be
so let’s make a map of new york you and me
[new yorker:]
twenty-two reade, a building, sidewalk, shade
[another new yorker:]
now a memory that for beth will never fade
[beth:]
and i could be planning city sites
where memories just like this one might be made
[writer:]
thirty-three bond,
where i wrote my first book
[chef:]
greenwich and moore,
where i learend how to cook
[young woman:]
the center street courts
i intern there
[beth:]
the joy of this job is everywhere i look
[messenger:]
that market was my first job
[elena:]
that diner was my worst job
[those six:]
and everywhere around me are these lives i left behind
[foreman:]
the tunnel where i laid rail
[realtor:]
the co-op where i made my first sale
[all eight:]
they make a map of new york in my mind
[anne:]
put a sticker on the map where you landed that first day
[kate:]
put a pin on the bridge
[lucas:]
on the train
[anne:]
on j.f.k
[beth:]
on the street where i swore i’d afford a place some day
[kate, anne, lucas, & new yorkers:]
ev’ry avenue and place,
ev’ry building, ev’ry face
of the lovers and the friends,
the beginnings and the ends
make a map of nyc,
where i’ve been and who i’ll be
and you’ll find me
[liz:]
and you’re feeling adrift, alone, apart
then suddenly life will somehow start
and a map of new york is written on your heart
[new yorkers:]
on your heart
on your heart
[beth:]
i’m too old for all that sh-t
to be told i’m selling out
then again, all these years,
did i lose what i’m about?
on the street, in the cold,
it’s so hard to fight the doubt
[beth & new yorkers:]
then you hear the tunnel hum
with a rain about to come
and you surface to the street
and you fall into the beat
you can trace a line to me
on that map of nyc
right where i should be
[stephen:]
think of how human life will ebb and flow
[stephen & beth:]
people, and how they’ll come and how they’ll go
remember the things we hoped and planned
[stephen:]
remember them, and believe them, and you’ll know
[beth & stephen:]
we’ll know
[beth, stephen & new yorkers:]
we never walk a straight line
we never check a street sign
[beth & stephen:]
but it’s in the detour that we truly find our way
[stephen & new yorkers:]
we always know the way home
[beth & new yorkers:]
as long as we can stay here we’re home
[beth:]
and we make a map of work
[new yorkers:]
love and loss and life
[stephen:]
and we make a map of play
[new yorkers:]
we find our way
[stephen & new yorkers:]
and we make a map of new york ev’ry day
[new yorker:]
ending the night at 23rd and third
[another new yorker:]
liz and her date,
who’s hanging on every word
